If you are talking about the head bolt tightening pattern, then this is it: http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/TSRM/mk3/manual.aspx?Section=EM&Page=55

Looks to be a decent set. I'd have two concerns though. First, how low does the pipe hang in the front? Second, there is not a BOV mount (they reference the bottom of the listing, but I saw nothing). I'm not sure on their price or intercooler quality, but the routing looks pretty good.

What pattern did you tighten them in?

A database of virgin oil sample analyses would be nice (since theorectically the specific oil brand/weight/additive should remain fairly constant).

If you are really worried, you could replace the water pump. It sounds like it took a pretty heavy hit. I don't know if the internals could be damaged. I doubt that they would because if it ever got to that level of impact, you would be in a lot worse shape.

I wrote an english paper over the differences in the mk3 and mk4. I talked to the prof and was able to cite myself on many many things (i.e. I got to cite myself for the info on the bore/stroke ratio because I've seen first hand the differences). I also used many of my own pictures to show...

He's just alluding to replacing your car if all else fails. For the power drain, check in the rear hatch to see if the little switched light back there is on. How old is your battery? It could just be going out and losing its ability to hold a charge for long periods of time.

That carb cleaner is very strong, I wouldnt use it near any rubber / plastic.

What would be the ball park price for the remote start w/keyless with a 500' range (manual car)?

I was in the same position around summer time. I researched some and decided on the turbonetics 62-1. It spools by 3600-4000 (saw a video of Bigaaron's car when he had the 62-1, tach shot). I'll have to wait a little while longer to find out how it runs when my build comes together. Probably...

My GReddy type S has the same nipple setup. It ran fine with the bottom one just open. I was kinda uneasy about it being free to collect dirt, so I put a tiny air breather on it (simple plastic inline air filter).

I would also like to see what all has been done with some real aftermarket cams with some agressive lift. Anyone had any experience with the Brian Crower 272 cams?

Something under the gas pedal? :)

Pretty good buyer's guide: http://82.110.105.76/mkiiisupra.net/bbs/showthread.php?t=14515&highlight=guide+buying

All the gran turismos. In the first gran turismo, I actually started with it as my first car before I even knew what the hell a supra was (they had it for like 9k and you get 10k to start with).

The stock torque spec is 56 ft/lbs. Many cars that have blown have been modded and ran hard, but there are still cases of original owners never really beating on the car, yet it still blows the head gasket in the 120-160k mile range. If you are looking to save money on a head gasket job, you...

I don't know, I was only referencing from first hand experience with the supra. I came to a logical conclusion from my own experiences trying to help someone out, wasn't trying to start an argument or anything.

Here is a link to GReddy's online instruction manual for the Profec B spec II: http://www.greddy.com/img/PHP/products/pdf/682.pdf

The standard bore wont work on an engine that has been bored over, simply because the gasket would be smaller than the cylinder bore. The only thing that I can see that might become a problem is that the little bit of extra bore creates a small area between the head and block. I've never had...

If you look at the stock setup, the downpipe is bolted to the elbow (bolted to the turbo and rest of the engine). There is a "flex" section in the downpipe, then after the flex section, there is a bracket that mounts the exhaust to the transmission. The whole exhaust is bolted to the engine...
